  • $116.30


The Lennox 42W92 Transformer is a critical OEM replacement part designed for high-performance HVAC systems. This 208/240V to 24V step-down transformer provides a stable 40VA power rating, ensuring that low-voltage control circuits, thermostats, and contactors receive consistent current. Built for durability in commercial and residential air handlers, it features a robust foot mount design and 1/4 inch quick-connect terminals for a secure, professional installation. Unlike universal alternatives, this genuine Lennox part matches the exact electrical impedance and thermal protection requirements of the original equipment. Whether you are troubleshooting a blown control circuit or performing a proactive system overhaul, the 42W92 transformer is the technician's choice for restoring reliable communication between the furnace, heat pump, and indoor air handler. Its Class 2 insulation and 60Hz frequency rating make it highly compatible with leading Lennox and Allied Air configurations, maintaining the integrity of the HVAC control system without the risk of early saturation or voltage drop during peak demand.

  • Standardized Output: Delivers a clean 24VAC secondary output essential for modern smart thermostats and electronic control boards.
  • Simplified Mounting: The foot-mounted frame allows for quick installation using standard 1/4 inch nut drivers or sockets.
Common Questions

Can I use the 42W92 if my current transformer is 30VA?
Yes, you can upgrade from a 30VA to a 40VA transformer. Increasing the Volt-Amp (VA) rating provides more "headroom" for accessories like humidifiers or electronic air cleaners, whereas you should never "step down" to a lower VA rating.

What are the wiring colors for the secondary side?
On standard Lennox 42W92 configurations, the 24V secondary typically utilizes blue and yellow leads. Always verify the wiring diagram on the unit's cabinet to ensure correct phase alignment.

Will this solve a 'no power to thermostat' issue?
If you have 240V at the primary side but 0V at the R and C terminals, the transformer winding has likely failed. Replacing it with this OEM 42W92 restores the low-voltage loop required to trigger the inducer motor and compressor.
